Informed or told?
Something has been intriguing me for a while. Some years ago when a soldier died in Afghanistan or Iraq the BBC rubric was "their family have been informed", then it changed to "their family have been told". Now it seems to oscillate between the two wordings. Is there a reason for the change or does the choice of word indicate something?
